Celtics Defeat Lakers

Without Lakers star player Kobe Bryant, Celtics took advantage and finished with a victory Thursday night against the Lakers, ending their 4 game winning streak with a score of 87-86.
After the Lakers took a close 84-80 lead on Andrew Bynums dunk with just over 7 minutes of the game remaining, the team got cold and Celtics took advantage.
Lakers Derek Fisher, who only scored three points on 1-for-9 shooting, missed a potential game-winning jumper at the buzzer.
Bryant sat out last nights game, which was his fifth consecutive game he has missed because of a strained tendon in his left ankle. Some could say it left a void in the Lakers arsenal but they still managed to win four games in a row without one of their star players.
